2 Samuel 14
1 Now Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that the king’s heart was toward Absalom.
Chuin lengpan Absalom hi angai cha lheh jeng taiti Zeruiah chapa Joab hin ahin hetdoh tan ahi.
2 And Joab sent to Tekoah, and fetched thence a wise woman, and said unto her, I pray thee, feign thyself to be a mourner, and put on now mourning apparel, and anoint not thyself with oil, but be as a woman that had a long time mourned for the dead:
Joab hin mi asolin Tekoa khosunga mi numei chingtah khat aga hol doh sah in, amanu koma chun asei tai, “Nangma tun lunghem a pul dou dou jeng tobang'in kisem in, pul douna ponsil kisil’in lang, thao jeng jong kinu dan, ajeh chu phat sottah sunga thi op’a um numei pul dou dou jeng bangin um'in ati.
3 And come to the king, and speak on this manner unto him. So Joab put the words in her mouth.
Chutengle lengpa koma ga chelut’inlang, ajah a hitin ga sei in, “ati, Joab chun asei ding thu jouse abonchan amanu chu athu mop tai.
4 And when the woman of Tekoah spake to the king, she fell on her face to the ground, and did obeisance, and said, Help, O king.
Tekoa khosunga numeinu chu lengpa koma ahung phat’in abohkhup in tol'a amai asulut in jana ape tai, chule aman aseiyin, “Vo lengpa, nei pan pin,” ati.
5 And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, I am indeed a widow woman, and mine husband is dead.
Hichun lengpan jong adong in, “Na gentheina ipi pen ham?” atileh, amanun adonbut’in, O kaden, keima meithainu kahi, kaji pa athia ahitai ati.
6 And thy handmaid had two sons, and they two strove together in the field, and there was none to part them, but the one smote the other, and slew him.
Chule nasoh nu kei hin chapa ni kaneiyin, amani chu lou jaova ahung kibao lhonin akina lhone; hichun amani phel khen ding mihem khat cha anaum lou jeh in khatpan khatjoh pachu ajep’in athat pai tai.
7 And, behold, the whole family is risen against thine handmaid, and they said, Deliver him that smote his brother, that we may kill him, for the life of his brother whom he slew; and we will destroy the heir also: and so they shall quench my coal which is left, and shall not leave to my husband neither name nor remainder upon the earth.
Hijeh chun tun vetan, insung pumpi ahung kon uvin nasoh nu hi eidel khum’uvin hitin asei uve, Asopipa that pachu hinlha doh loiyin, aman asopi pa athat in ahinkho khel a keihon ama katha diu ahi,’ tin aseiyuve; hitobang hin amahon ama chilhah jong asuh bei teidiu dol ahitai. Hitia hi amahon keima mei-am jeng jong achen mit uva hiche leiset chunga kaji pa min asuh mang diu, achi khai ding jong aumsah lou diu ahitai,” ati.
8 And the king said unto the woman, Go to thine house, and I will give charge concerning thee.
Chuphat’in lengpan jong numei nu koma chun hitin aseiye, “keima boldin dalhan lang, Na’in lama chen, keiman anavesui tange koiman atohkhah lou nadin,’ tin asol tai.
9 And the woman of Tekoah said unto the king, My lord, O king, the iniquity be on me, and on my father’s house: and the king and his throne be guiltless.
Chuin Tekoa khoa hung kon numeinu chun lengpa koma chun hitin asei kit’e, kakipah e, kapu lengpa chule “Kapu lengpa chu keima eikithopi jeh a nahin seiset khah uleh themmona chu keima le ka inkote chunga chujo hen, lengpa le alaltou na vang themmona beiyin umjo hen,’ tin aseiye.
10 And the king said, Whosoever saith ought unto thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee any more.
Chuin lengpan asei kit in, “Mihem khat touvin nakoma thu asei kit’a ahileh ama chu kei koma hin pui jeng in, ama chun nang ma natham khah kit louhel ding ahi,’ ati peh e.
11 Then said she, I pray thee, let the king remember Yhwh thy God, that thou wouldest not suffer the revengers of blood to destroy any more, lest they destroy my son. And he said, As Yhwh liveth, there shall not one hair of thy son fall to the earth.
Hichun amanun jong asei kit in, “Lungset tah in Pakai na Pathen henga nei taopeh teitei in, chutia chu thisan phu lanom pan mi atha kit louva, kachapa atha louna din,’ atileh; lengpan jong aseipeh-in, “Pakai hing jing mina kasei ahi, nachapa chu asamjang khat jeng cha jong kisubui lou ding ahi,’ ati tai.
12 Then the woman said, Let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak one word unto my lord the king. And he said, Say on.
Hichun numei nun asei kit’in, “Lungset tah-in nasohnu kei hi kapu lengpa koma thu cheng khat beh neisei sah thei kit ding ham,’ atia ahileh; lengpan jong, “Seiyin seiyin,” ati.
13 And the woman said, Wherefore then hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God? for the king doth speak this thing as one which is faulty, in that the king doth not fetch home again his banished.
Hichun numei nun asei in, “Chuti ahileh ipi dinga nangman Pathen mite douna a hitobang thilgon hi nanei ham? Ijeh-inem itileh lengpan hitobanga thutanna naneiya kon hin lengpan nadel mangpa inlama napuilut loujeh-in nathu tan hi nangma chungma ma a nakitan ahi tai ati.
14 For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.
Ajeh chu eiho Ibon chauva athi cheh ding Ihiu’ve, chule Ibon chauva tol'a twi kisung lha kinung thaldoh kit thei lou tobang ihiuvin ahi, Pathen in jong mithi long damsa chu phong doh kit deh tapon te; chule lengpa chun ama toh ekikhan teng ule ama toh ihung eumkhom theikit nadiu aneiyin ahi.
15 Now therefore that I am come to speak of this thing unto my lord the king, it is because the people have made me afraid: and thy handmaid said, I will now speak unto the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his handmaid.
Chule keima hiche thuseiya hi kapu lengpa heng hung kahi, ipijeh-inem itileh mipi hin keima eitijat sah tauvin chuphat’a nasohnu ken jong hitia hi kagela, ‘Keiman lengpa koma gasei tange, ijem itileh lengpan asohnu kei thuseihi ngai jeng khat nan’te
16 For the king will hear, to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of the man that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.
Chule lengpan jong eisumang ding miho khut’a eihuh doh tei ding ahi, Pathen mite lah a ei suhmang sah lou ding ahi.’
17 Then thine handmaid said, The word of my lord the king shall now be comfortable: for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad: Therefore Yhwh thy God will be with thee.
Henge, kapu lengpan lungthim chamna eihin pih kit diu ahi. chule keiman kahen nangma hi thilpha thilse hekhen dola Pathen vantil tabang nahi. Pakai na-Pathenin napanpi jing hen,” ati.
18 Then the king answered and said unto the woman, Hide not from me, I pray thee, the thing that I shall ask thee. And the woman said, Let my lord the king now speak.
Hichun lengpan jong numeinu chu adonbut’in, “Keiman kadoh doh chu ipi hijong le imlou hellin neihin seipi in ati. Hichun numeinun jong aseiyin, “Kapu lengpan na seinom nom sei jengin,’ atitai.
19 And the king said, Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this? And the woman answered and said, As thy soul liveth, my lord the king, none can turn to the right hand or to the left from ought that my lord the king hath spoken: for thy servant Joab, he bade me, and he put all these words in the mouth of thine handmaid:
Hichun lengpan adong in, “Thil hijatpi nasei na a hi nangma Joab chutoh kihoutoh a kikhut jop nahim?” atileh; numeinu jong chun adonbut’in, “Kapu lengpa, eti kem kaseilep ding ham? Koima chan nangma kommah emacha sel thei ponte. Henge, Joab in eihinsol a chule thu hijat pi hi aman nasohnu keima hi eithumop’a ka kamsung'a eikhumpeh ahinai ati.
20 To fetch about this form of speech hath thy servant Joab done this thing: and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.
Nalhacha Joab chun nalung nakhel a thil kigon dol jouse nakhel doh ding gelkhoh na a hiche hi abol anahi. Ahoi chu hita leh kapu nangma hi leiset chunga um thil ijakai hetna dol a na chih dan mong mong Pathen Vantil chihna tobang bang a hi bou’ve,” atin ahi.
21 And the king said unto Joab, Behold now, I have done this thing: go therefore, bring the young man Absalom again.
Chutah chun lengpan jong Joab koma asei in asol tan ahi, aphai tun chinlang golhangpa Absalom chu ga nung pui lut tan,” ati.
22 And Joab fell to the ground on his face, and bowed himself, and thanked the king: and Joab said, To day thy servant knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, my lord, O king, in that the king hath fulfilled the request of his servant.
Chuin Joab jong chu tol'a abohkhup in, jana apen, lengpa phatthei aboh in, hiti hin Joab chun asei tai, “Tuni hin kapu lengpa mitmun lungset na kachang mong mong e, ti na soh pa thil ngeh khoh pen hi nanop peh jenge,’ ati.
23 So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
Chuin Joab jong akipat doh paiyin Geshur gam'a achen Absalom chu Jerusalem a ahin lepui tai.
24 And the king said, Let him turn to his own house, and let him not see my face. So Absalom returned to his own house, and saw not the king’s face.
Ahin lengpan hitin thupeh aneiye, “Absalom hi ama insunga chimei thei ahi, ahin keima angsunga vang hung vah lut thei louhel ding ahi,” ati. Hijeh chun Absalom in lengpa cu amutapon ahi.
25 But in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty: from the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.
Tun Israel chate lah a Absalom tobanga amel hoi jeh a seiphat thei dang koima cha anaum poi; Absalom hi akeng khotal juma pat alujang gei a achunga nolna ding imacha beihel ahi.
26 And when he polled his head, ( for it was at every year’s end that he polled it: because the hair was heavy on him, therefore he polled it: ) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels after the king’s weight.
Alujang sam chu kumkhat a khatvei bou ache ji ahi chule ajeh chu agih behseh jijeh ahi. hitia hi asam akivoa thil te naa atea ahileh, asam jeng jong chu shekel ja ni cheng agih jin ahi.
27 And unto Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar: she was a woman of a fair countenance.
Absalom hin chapa thum ahing in, chule chanu khat jong ahing in, achanu min chu Tamar akiti; Tamar jong hi numei hoi tah khatma ahi.
28 So Absalom dwelt two full years in Jerusalem, and saw not the king’s face.
Hiti hin Absalom hi kum ni lhingset Jerusalema acheng ahin, hijongle lengpa ang sungah khatvei cha avah lut kha hih beh in ahi.
29 Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to have sent him to the king; but he would not come to him: and when he sent again the second time, he would not come.
Chuin Absalom chun Joab kou dingin mi asol’in, ahunga ahileh lengpa koma sol din agon; ahinla Joab chu Absalom koma ahung tapon ahi. Hichun Joab in mi asol kit’in, ahi vang'in Joab chu ahung deh kit poi.
30 Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab’s field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.
Chuphat’in aman jong asoh te koma asei in, “Veuvin, Joab lou khu keima lou ban tah ahin, cheuvin lang alou laiya khu mei in gahal vam tauvin,” ati. Hijeh chun Absalom soh ten jong Joab lou chu meiyin agahal vam tao vin ahi.
31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire?
Chuphat’in Joab jong akipat doh in Absalom koma achen akoma hitin aseiye, “Ipi dinga nasoh ten kalou meiya ahal vam jeng u hitam?” aga tie.
32 And Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king, to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? it had been good for me to have been there still: now therefore let me see the king’s face; and if there be any iniquity in me, let him kill me.
Hichun Ab’salom jong chun Joab chu adonbut’in, “Vetan, keiman nahenga thu kahin thot jin, ‘Hikoma hungin keiman lengpa koma nasol ing ting, “Ipi ding pen tah a keima hi Geshur gam'a kona hung khoh khoh a kahiya, kei dinga Geshur gam'a umden chu nomjo dinga?” tin aseiye, tia gadoh sah ding kati nahi. Tujengin jong lengpa angsunga neilut sah mong mong in lang keiman themmona kaneiya ahijong leh aman eithat jeng hen,’ ati tia ga sei sah ding kati ahi,” ati.
33 So Joab came to the king, and told him: and when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king kissed Absalom.
Hijeh chun Joab jong lengpa koma achen aga seipeh tan ahileh, hichun lengpan jong Absalom chu akoutai. Chuin Absalom jong lengpa koma ahungin, lengpa angsunga chun abohkhup in amai tol'a asulut in jana apen ahi; chuin lengpan jong Absalom chu achop tai.
